  Microsoft will determine when the PC needs to be booted up as per your employer’s demands 😆

    It’s a really stupid way to describe thin clients, anyway. Assuming that’s what this is. I have no idea why a thin client would need a 2.5Gbps NIC.

      I know bandwidth isn’t latency but for a thin client having a rock solid network connection to the virtual desktop server is pretty important for the user interface. I’m guessing pushing video and animations can require pretty high data rates, too.
